Sunday, November 5, 2023 - About 75 mins after pulling the cork there's earth, old barrel and faint blueberry on the nose. Sweet tannins are a bit stronger than the chocolate and dark, black fruits that remain, but all are in a great place with a little air. Slight tannic bite front-palate, but the finish coats the entire palate and lasts a good 15 to 20 seconds.

I've got one more bottle of the case purchased on release and will drink it within 2 years. While this certainly last longer I don't envision it improving any further, with only downside risk.

As others note this is consistently one of the best QPR's you can find and consistently punches well above its price point.

UPDATE: 3.5 hrs after opening (not decanted) this is still enjoyable but softer than most would prefer.
